REPORTED METEOR FELL IN ONTARIO Residents Say Ball of Fire Plunged From Heavens -- North Bay, Ont, May 1 ~Tra- velling 'at tremendous velocity a ball of. fire 'plunged out of the heavens on Monday evening about 8 o'clock and buried itself some- where in the sparsely settled dis- trict about 20 miles from Methe- sou. Wedmesday rumors came out of the north to the effect that a forest- ry plane had been forced down in flames. These rumors came "Irom widely separated points sueh as Kirkland Lake, Ramore, Bourkes and Dane. While several people reported to have seen a plane flying at different places along the T. and N.O. Aines these could not be au- thenticated here, and the belief prevails that the supposed flaming plane was in reality a meteor. In conversation with the North Bay Nugget, C. A. Covey, station agent at Dane, said that several persons had seen the supposed fall- ing plane. C. A. Poynton, a Tor- onto mining engineer, stated that he had taken a bearing of the flam- ing mass _as it fell and concluded that the spot where it came to earth would be about 20 degrees east of North Bay, as shown on the map of the Kirkland Lake area. An official of the forestry branch here asserted that no forestry planes are operating in the north TRICKS COAL COMICS . & HOT'TENTOT CARES NOT FOR HEAT » NOR DOES A BEDQUIN--~ FOR ALL YEAR 'ROUND THE SUN SURE HEAT THE LAND 'THEY'RE LIVING IN' YOU WHO HANG ARQUND 'THIS CLIME WHERE WINTER WINDS PO BLOW, iI\|.
